An Auckland construction company has received a hefty fine after ignoring a notice to stop work while safety measures were improved.
Hobson Construction Limited were sentenced at the Auckland District Court on Wednesday and fined $180,000 for exposing workers to a risk of a fall from height at a residential construction site.
A WorkSafe Inspector visited the Millwater site for an assessment in July 2018 and noted a number of health and safety failings, relating to inadequate fall protection and work from height.
